Hello! Happy Sunday! It seems like I was just writing that ...where did the week go? It's crunch time around here as Round 1 of the birthday celebrations is a week away. I've been busy making t0-do lists {I'm totally a 'list' person} to make sure all of my i's are dotted and my t's are crossed :). What can I say, I'm a planner!

I finished up the cupcake toppers for the homemade cupcakes that I'll make closer to the party. Much like last year, I wanted to try my hand at something new for my little one {See my Elmo cake-pop adventure HERE). I'm hoping that this year goes just as well as last. Wish me luck!

This little project was so fun and OH-EM-GEE, EASY!

Using my Creative Memories Scalloped Circle Punch and Circle Punch, I create the layers. I decided to use 4 different color combination's for more POP! The scalloped circle design matches the banner that I made last week--check it out HERE.

Originally I wanted to put a cow, pig, horse, or sheep on each topper ...but, the smaller circle is only 1 1/4" and well, I just couldn't get anything cut cleanly at that size. So, I did the next best thing! I used "2" because my little beauty will be 2 and I used "Moo," "Oink," or "Baa." The font is from Country Life.

What do you think? Cute, right? I am so pleased with how they turned out, being this was my first venture into cupcake toppers and I am SUPER excited to see them on my homemade cupcakes! I'll share those with you next weekend :)
